Martin Malina commented on JBIDE-19697:
---------------------------------------

[~snjeza], ok, but that still doesn't explain why my eap 6.3 directory is in the newly initialized config file, right? How does it know to add that exact directory? Note that it specifies /Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0, but nothing else in the runtimes/ directory (I have plenty of servers there) - I use this one often. So it must have taken it from another instance of Eclipse or something. But how?

> When I install JBDs 9.0.0.Alpha2 B24 BYOE into new Eclipse Mars M6 and new workspace, during the installation, suddenly the runtime detection config appears inside my Eclipse isntall dir:
> {code}
> $ find Eclipse-runtime-test.app/ -name 'org.jboss.tools.runtime.*.prefs'
> Eclipse-runtime-test.app//Contents/Eclipse/configuration/.settings/org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui.prefs
> {code}
> This is inside the file:
> {code}
> $ find Eclipse-runtime-test.app/ -name 'org.jboss.tools.runtime.*.prefs'|xargs cat
> eclipse.preferences.version=1
> runtimePaths=<?xml version\="1.0" encoding\="UTF-8" standalone\="no"?>\n<runtimePaths version\="2">\n  <runtimePath path\="/Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0" scanOnEveryStartup\="false" timestamp\="-1">\n    <serverDefinitions>\n      <serverDefinition description\="" enabled\="true" location\="/Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0" name\="JBoss EAP 6.3" type\="EAP" version\="6.3">\n        <included/>\n      </serverDefinition>\n    </serverDefinitions>\n  </runtimePath>\n</runtimePaths>\n
> {code}
> It contains /Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0 which I use regularly when testing server tooling. But how did this happen?
> I looked for the pref file before I started BYOE installation. Then a bit later, a few minutes into the installation, I checked again and the file is there now.
> Can somebody explain what's going on?
> Note: This happened to me yesterday and it surprised me, but I wasn't sure if it wasn't my mistake somehow. But Max preferred I try again, so I did. And it is happening again now.
